Summer Classes of 2009 Begin!

As mentioned in my previous post, it is time for summer school classes! I officially began on Monday the 15th, and am enrolled in Anthropology 101 and Music Appreciation. They are both online classes at Parkland which allow for me to work around my hectic work schedule at the bank, as well as at my own pace. The nice thing about online classes at Parkland College is that they are structured to allow for you to work at your own pace, however, they do set some deadlines depending on the class to force you get the best education possible! For example, my Art Appreciation class that I took last semester had strict deadlines; each and every week I had to have my homework and quiz done by Sunday. The same appears to be the case with my Anthropology class, which will cover a lot of material. However, for my Music Appreciation class, the work can be done at anytime as long as it is done before the end of the semester. I find it nice that my music class has a lot of freedom, however, I can see how procrastinators will be struggling the week before the class ends! Personally, I am not on to procrastinate, so it is nice to have a class with deadlines. Well, until my next post, I will leave you with more advice (as I have done in every post since the beginning of my blog)!

Chris' Advice of the Post:

• Don't Procrastinate!
• And of course, get involved with the extracurricular activities at Parkland!
